A lot of these guys copy the same methods whitepaper, roadmap, etc. The only problem I see is the altcoins all did that the first time around and most failed and cut bait and ran.
Who is more at fault, the snake oil peddler or the one that is buying from him? People don't understand what utility is, but they gladly nod their heads when someone else talks about it pretending to understand it. That's why it is so easy to scam them, it is pretty much only their own fault.
To me, bitcoin is the only project with real utility and application. The rest of the market is only suitable for speculation and gambling no matter how they try to dress it up and make it look more appealing.
It is not just your opinion it is a fact.
